What can replace zinio magazine app/how access magazines on playbook?

Hi,
I would like to read a few magazines on my playbook but Zinio offers no cost savings off the sale price.   Is there some other app to use?  Rogers next issue doesn't work on playbook.

As for the adult-material censorship, things haven't changed one bit. The only "comforting" news is that (as I knew) Android devices are enforcing the same policy. I wrote to Zinio complaining about the issue, and asked them if they were not considering an alternative way of letting us read those magazines (such as complimentary pdf copy), and this was the quite brutal answer, that made me cancel my Zinio subscription.
Thank you for contacting Zinio Customer Support.
Apple, The Android Market, and other providers restrict adult content for mobile devices.  Until they eliminate these restrictions, Zinio cannot provide adult content for the iPhone, iPad, iPod touch or Android. Zinio is not considering any options for making the content available to mobile devices at this time.
I understand that this is not "their" problem not their fault, but still, there are a lot of services providing adult material for iOS devices, such as mobile friendly websites... and then apps such as goodreader or bookman allowing you to load whatever material you want...
Bottomline: on the one hand Apple are a bunch of hypcrites, favoring the "as long as you do it yourself" rule. I am not one of those making a lot of fuss about the way manufacturers treat their employees at Foxconn & co., but **** what, it is not moral to read adult magazines but it is moral to treat workers as slaves? I hardly think so...
On the other hand, distributors such as Zinio should make an effort to bypass Apple's silly regulations. I am sure that if they provide iOS users with a free copy (maybe don't make it super high quality, password protect it, I don't know) of adult-magazines they would prevent users from ditching their subscription and go for illegal pdf copies...

  • Can I setup Mail app to access Yahoo mail via IMAP?

    Can I setup Mail app to access Yahoo mail via IMAP? I think that my iPhone is doing this, but what about the Apple Mail app on my Mac? I don't like the fact that the Mac downloads the e-mail messages and removes them from the server, therefore making them inaccessible from Yahoo's online mail or my iPhone.
    I'd like to get to work just like my Mobile Me e-mail... Any thoughts?

    There is an option in the 'Advanced' section of the account setup to delete the messages from the server after a specified period rather than immediately on download; you could leave them for a week or whatever, then they will still be there when the iPhone accesses them.

    Hi,
    If the machine is brand new I don't see why the serial Number is missing (it is entered on to a special chip at the factory)
    However if the machine is a return and has been refurbished then the Logic/mother board may have been changed and someone forgot to put the info back to the new board.

    If you bought an Apple gift card, then you cannot use it in the iTunes store.  You can only use it in the Apple store for hardware.
    You would need an iTunes gift card to buy anything in iTunes

    Spotlight and search field in Outlook on MacBoon cannot find files as of a certain date. What can be the problem and how to solve?

    Reinstall on both.
    Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks without erasing drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Mountain Lion or Mavericks
    OS X Mavericks- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Mountain Lion- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Lion- Reinstall Mac OS X
         Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet
                     if possible because it isthree times faster than wireless.
    Restore your iPhone to reinstall iOS. Be sure to do this while connected to your computer and iTunes.

    Changing your password won't help. It is a touchscreen so if 7,8,9 are not working then that part of the screen will not work if you were to get it unlocked.
    TeeKnows is right. You need to contact Apple for a repair.

    Hi everyone!
    I tried to update a few apps from my iPhone, and to install  new applications from APPSTORE. But i got a message :" Your Apple ID has been disabled"!!!!!!
    What can i do now? Can you help me please?
    The same thing happend with my IPAD....
    How can i do to function all this in the same way which was working till this problem appears.
    I want to mention that i have 2 email adresses asociated with the same Apple ID.
    wait for an feedback!
    Thanks a lot!

    Depending on why it's been disabled you might be able to re-enable it via this page : http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password'
    Or you might need to contact Apple : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page
    If it then works on your computer's iTunes but not your phone/iPad then try logging out of your account on the phone/iPad by tapping on your id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores on iOS 6) and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on it

  • What can replace WinHelp?

    I produce online help in WinHelp format that we attach to a
    graphical-user-interface (GUI) overlay on our AS/400 applications.
    When the application user clicks the Help button, the online help
    opens to either the specific topic for that window or to the help
    system's Welcome page.
    We would prefer to switch our help format to HTMLHelp (CHM
    file), but cannot because of Microsoft Security Update 896358. Some
    of our writers work on a server and some of our clients run
    applications (and therefore Help) on a server, and the security
    update, as some of you well know, will not allow CHM files to work
    on a server (at least not without some registry editing, which our
    software security people are not inclined to do).
    If it is true, as I have been told, that WinHelp is
    essentially a dying (if not dead) format, and we cannot use CHM,
    what alternatives do we have? Is there anything else that can
    replace WinHelp? I know about the relatively simple workarounds if
    the CHM file is downloaded from the Internet, but that's not the
    case with us; it is attached to the application itself.
    Does anybody have any suggestions? They would be much
    appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Sara,
    What I would do in your situation is to create a CHM file
    that has all your content, but use the WinHelp 2000 viewer to
    display the HTML topic in your WinHelp file on the right hand side.
    You would have to code a topic-level macro to jump to the correct
    topic in the CHM file. You will also need to distribue the CHM file
    with your WinHelp projet files so, for example, if you have
    APP1.HLP, you would also distribute APP1.CHM.
    This approach does three things for you:
    1) it allows you to code your content in HTML while you wait
    for Dev to catch up
    2) it allows you to be ready for when Dev says, "we're
    starting the conversion of our apps."
    3) it allows you to do the conversion to HTML in pieces. You
    only have to add the topic-level macros to those topics that have
    been converted to HTML. You can still have some topics in WinHelp.
    I do this now for our internal help file and it works well.
    When Dev changes, you will already have your content in HTML
    and will only have to make changes that are based upon any
    interface changes. Otherwise, you would have to code the HTML as
    part of the conversion from WinHelp to HTML and also code the HTML
    to adapt the changes that are made to the interface.
    Hint: At the same time that you are creating the CHM file,
    you should be coding your Index and building the TOC, even though
    no one will see the TOC and Index until you are 100% using CHM
    files.

  • What can I do about app udates that aren't downloading

    I've tried to get updates for my apps and it just says waiting. What can I do?

    I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the entry, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.
    (Not entirely sure what happens after you click that link, but fingers crossed it should be relatively straightforward.)

  • What can replace Appleworks database?

    My non-profit business database has been on Appleworks forever! Mainly that means names and addresses and record of monthly contributions, from which I send a mail merge letter of acknowledgement to contributors each month. Now I have read that Appleworks will not work on Lion. If I understand correctly, Bento can’t do mail merge with auto fill-in of addresses and other personalized info. So what can I transfer all this info to? And HOW will I transfer years of records on my Appleworks database?

    The only program with anything like the functionality of the AppleWorks database is FileMaker Pro. It's expensive, and has a steep learning curve, but can do almost anything the AW database can plus a good deal more. It's also pretty well the industry standard so it's not likely to go away.
    However it can't import AW dateabases; you have to export them as ASCII text and import that, which means you will have to recreate layouts and calculation fields.

  • What can replace distiller 6.0

    We are currently using Acrobat Distiller 6.0 to convert ps files to PDF on Windows server 2003. We are swithing to windows server 2008.
    What can we replace the 6.0 distiller.that will give us the same functionality.

    Sorry, I don't know the product. It has its own forum LiveCycle PDF Generator though it does not frankly seem very active. It is one of a class of enteprise server products all called LiveCycle something. I have read that these typically support a Java API and watched folders. PDF Generator comes in various editions, one which is little more than Distiller, but others accept a wide variety of input e.g. Office documents, and can export too.
